THE FOLDING BED.
A Chicago Man Goes to Sleep Under
One Rescued by Policemen.
IFrom the CHICAGO Tribnno !


A remarkable adventure with a folding
bed occurred few nights ago to- young
man connected with leading dry goods
house Of the city. The young man re-
ferred to lives on the North Side, and
manifests occasionally much conyiviali
tn Of disposition. He had been mani
Testing such quality one evening, week
before last, and when he went home was
IN a balmy and beaming mood. He hit
the keyhole somehow, and went up
stairs TO his room. His folding bed he
recognized as the place in which he was
accustomed to sleep, and he recollected
that something had to be done with the
article to make it ready for occupancy.
He grappled with it. The next morn
ing the chambermaid entering the room
was surprised to ssee that the folding
bed had not been occupied, though it
had been pulled down. She did the
usual sweeping and busting, and then
seized the bed to lift it back to its place
Then she dropped it and began series
Of blood curdling screams, which assem-
bled the household. She said there was
body under the bed. 1t was lifted, and
the body was there, sure enough. 1t
was the body of Mr. -, and he was
sleeping like lamb. He had pulled
the bed down on himself, and had gone
to sleep perfectly satisfied, the legs of
the article OF furniture holding it at
sufficient height to prevent his sufoca-
ton In his dazed condition he had
discovered the easiest way of going to
bed ever yet hit upon.
Still another story in which the fold
ing bed figured is reported from Ellis
avenue. This particular folding bed IS
owned by lady on the above-named
thoroughfare. One memorable night in
her life no sooner had she fairly inn
planted her head on the downy pillows
than the pesky continuance began to
close in upon her. Faster and faster it
moved, and all the stories she had ever
read of people being buried alive flashed
through her mind 1t was a moment
of supreme horror. But as the average
woman ut sight of mouse will summon
to her aid a woman's only weapon-to
wit, her tongue-so did the faiI@ Ellis
avenue sufferer bethink her of that use
full ut oft unruly member, and right
Justify did she employ it, too, as her
neighbors can we'll and truly testify, and
as her husband might also, but for the
fact that it was lodge night, and his
presence had been demanded down
town. Hearing a succession of I'M
earthly shrieks, tina more yenturesome
of the aforesaid neighbors attempted to
get into the house, but not being pro
fessional house breakers their efforts
were signally unsuccessful. Meanwhile
the screams and shrieks continued with
redoubled vehemence, and it was not
until one of the neighbors had called
the police patrol, and two of Chicago's
preseryers Of the peace had broken open
tho door and invaded the premises, and
discovered the cause of so unseemly mn
outbreak in most respectable, quiet
neighborhood that the poor woman was
released from her folding prison, and
peace gradually settled down upon the
scene
